- "In 1968 a group of clergy and organists representing Anglicans, Congregationalists, Methodists and Presbyterians met to discuss the possibility of publishing an ecumenical hymn book in Australia. Each of these churches had established Hymn Book Committees to assess the adequacy of their present books and to recommend a way forward. When these four committees met together, they agreed that it was time for a contemporary hymn book to be prepared, and they realised that they could help each other to achieve their common aim. So it was that the Australian Hymn Book Committee was formed. .... In 1975 Professor Wesley Milgate was appointed Executive Editor by the Hymn Book Committee". -- Committee Foreword.
